Omolara needs someone who understands: peer support in recovery
Peer mentor wanted by a person four months into recovery from prescription-drug dependence.

I'm four months into recovery from prescription-drug dependence. I attend meetings and see a counselor, but the weeks between meetings are the hardest. I'd love a mentor - someone who has a year or more of recovery and who would be willing to talk once a week.
I'm not looking for a replacement for treatment. I'm looking for someone who understands what a bad Tuesday night feels like.
I'd prefer someone who's happy to do video calls. Any country is fine. I'll be respectful of your time and boundaries, and happy to pay it forward later.
Thank you for reading my story.

Hope you get there. I hope February is when things finally get easier.
Take care, Omolara. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My neighbor in Riverside donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Port Harcourt.
So sorry you're going through this, Omolara. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My husband and I read this together.
